The question is: do you understand WHY we raise and reraise with this preflop? (Because everyone says so, or because they look pretty are not valid responses.) [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

As for this question, most people would say to limit the playing field, when actually it is to increase our pot equity and the value of my hand, yes?

As for the the other replies, thanks and I will try to post more questionable hands.

Yes. Basically get as much $ in the pot when you have the most equity. My sample size isn't ginormous like some of the old timers here, but I believe my PT stats have me at winning with AA a little over 70% of the time. BUT, don't neglect your other high pocket pairs preflop, of course.
